Spider gave him no peace till he promised to show him the stone. This he was most unwilling to do knowing his cousin's wicked ways. He felt sure that when Spider saw the stone he would not be content to take only what he needed. However, Spider troubled him so much with questions that at last he promised. He told Spider that they would start next morning, as soon as the women set about their work. Spider was too impatient to wait. In the middle of the night, he told his children to get up and make a noise with the pots as if they were the women at work. Spider at once ran and wakened his cousin, saying, “Quick! It is time to start." His cousin, however, saw he had been tricked and went back to bed again, saying he would not start till the women were sweeping. No sooner was he asleep again than Spider made his children take brooms and begin to sweep very noisily. He roused Kofi once more, saying, "It is time we had started.” Once more his cousin refused to set off, saying it was only another trick of Spider's. He again returned to bed and to sleep. This time Spider slipped into his cousin's room and cut a hole in the bottom of his bag, which he then filled with ashes. After that, he went off and left Kofi in peace.

How do the events build to support the central idea?

A. When Spider learns of the stone, Kofi selfishly tries to keep it for himself.

B. Because of his hunger, Spider tries to learn the secret of Kofi's well-being.

C. Because of his greed, Spider is suspicious of Kofi and then steals from him.

D. When Kofi shows him the stone, Spider hurries to take it home to feed his family.​

Answer:

c

Explanation:

i think its more likely c

cause kofi wasn't selfish if it said he was unwilling to show it cause of his cousin, the spider, ways.  it never said or implied that he wanted to know kofi's well-being.  it also never mentioned kofi showing him the stone, so i think it would be c cause it does say the spider wanted to see the stone and it also implied in the beginning that he was wicked, also in the end it says he fills a bag with ashes

Read the excerpt from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll.

“I won't be introduced to the pudding, please,” Alice said rather hastily, “or we shall get no dinner at all. May I give you some?”

But the Red Queen looked sulky, and growled “Pudding – Alice; Alice – Pudding. Remove the pudding!” and the waiters took it away so quickly that Alice couldn't return its bow.

However, she didn't see why the Red Queen should be the only one to give orders, so, as an experiment, she called out “Waiter! Bring back the pudding!” and there it was again in a moment like a conjuring-trick. It was so large that she couldn't help feeling a LITTLE shy with it, as she had been with the mutton; however, she conquered her shyness by a great effort and cut a slice and handed it to the Red Queen.

Which life experience best connects to the theme in the excerpt?

standing up to a bully
sharing a meal with a friend
moving to a new neighborhood
shopping for new clothes
